I HAT we have been passing through one of 
' the most momentous periods in the history 
of the human race is becoming more and 
more apparent as events shape themselves 
before our eyes, and yet the very nearness 
and magnitude of these events prevent our 
grasping to any adequate extent their 
significance in molding the world's future 
destinies; nor can we as yet for the same reasons fully 
appreciate the sacrifice and the service which have been so 
freely offered to mold these destinies for righteousness and 
for the happiness of mankind. 

In the lines of sacrifice and service the employees of the 
Brown & Sharpe Mfg. Co. have made not only an honorable 
but a distinguished record, and it is the purpose of this 
Memorial Booklet to perpetuate this record, not only as a 
present recognition and evidence of appreciation, but that 
it may be a permanent memorial handed down as an 
undying record, an inspiration and a guide to future genera- 
tions. 

Special recognition is given to those from our ranks who, 
on sea, land and in the air, stood ready to give their all in 
the cause of world liberty, and especially to those whose 
lives were sacrificed in the great cause, not forgetting, 
however, those who loyally served at home. 

On the following pages will be found an Honor Roll of 
those who entered the service, grouped by Departments; 
also a story of some of the events in which they participated, 
accompanied by personal experiences where such have been 
available. 

Besides distinction in military service, a record upon 

[7] 



FOREWORD 



which we can look with pride is the splendid showing made 
by our employees who served and sacrificed at. home, 
through conservation of food and resources, and through 
loyal service at their work, so that the Government might 
not lack funds, the people food, nor the Army munitions, 
to effectively prosecute the war. It is with special grati- 
fication that we realize that the high standard set in home 
service by the Brown & Sharpe employees was held up as a 
guide and inspiration to other industries throughout the 
country, thus serving further to swell the funds and prod- 
ucts needed in such great quantities to carry on the vast 
enterprises made necessary by the war and by recon- 
struction. 

A fit finale for this story of sacrifice and service was the 
spontaneous and joyous celebration of Armistice Day, 
Nov. 11, 1918, when pent-up feelings, long restrained, burst 
the bounds of shop walls, and wild rejoicing was in evidence 
throughout our city, — a never-to-be-forgotten demonstra- 
tion, the like of which Providence and the nation had never 
seen before. 

We did not, at the time of victory and rejoicing, forget 
those whose hearts were sad with bereavements that had 
come to them through the vicissitudes of war — losses sym- 
bolized by the gold stars shining brightly on the service 
flags carried in that most impressive and touching of all 
spectacles, — the Mothers' Parade through the streets of 
Providence, the participation of these mothers in this parade 
showing that fortitude and courage, that readiness to serve 
in the line of duty, which had been handed down to those 
whose lives were sacrificed. 

In offering to those who mourn our heartfelt words of 
sympathy, we can add this solace, that, because the great 
cause for which their loved ones died has been victorious, 
the sacrifices have not been in vain; and because of that 
victory not only have the rights of our nation and of man- 
kind been protected against the aggressors, but the way 
has been opened leading to a standard of civilization higher 
than ever before attained, if only we stand firm to over- 
throw the insidious enemies within as those without have 
been overthrown.

F the nineteen Brown & Sharpe employees 
whose lives were sacrificed in the Great 
War, five were killed in battle, one in an 
aeroplane accident, and thirteen died of 
disease. 

Twelve lives were lost overseas, and 
seven on this side of the water. Fifteen 
were in the U. S. Army, three in the U. S. 
Navy, and one in the Canadian Army. 

SERGT. JOSHUA K. BROADHEAD, Milling Machine Mfg. Dept., 
was killed in action Apr. 20, 1918. He was awarded the "Distinguished 
Service Cross" for valor through a citation by General Pershing, and the 
Croix de Guerre by the French Government. This latter was ac- 
companied by a letter of transmittal to his father, saying: "Your son 
showed the highest type of courage and self-sacrifice in insisting upon 
directing his gun squad until the last." 

At the time of his death, Sergeant Broadhead was with a special decoy 
battery of the 103 rd Field Artillery, at Seicheprey, where, at the height 
of the heaviest firing, he was wounded by a shell splinter, and although 
urged to report for treatment continued at the gun until he was killed 
by the explosion of another shell. His heroic action in thus remaining 
at his post aided the Rhode Island Batteries to get the range of the 
enemies' guns and silence them. 

WILLIAM BUSTIN, Hardening Dept., entered the service of the 
Canadian Engineers, Aug. 12, 1918, and died of pneumonia at Montreal, 
Canada, October 3, of the same year. He was the fifth of a family of seven 
brothers to enter the war. A widow and three children survive him and 
have returned to England. 

CHARLES E. CANAN was employed at the Brown & Sharpe 
Chicago Office and Store before entering the service. He had made 
repeated efforts to enlist prior to his final acceptance on Aug. 13, 1918, 
as an Apprentice Seaman in the Naval Reserve Force, serving in Co. F,

4th Regiment. He died of pneumonia at the Great Lakes Naval 
Hospital, Sept. 25, 1918, at the age of eighteen, after a short illness. 

WILLIAM D. CARROLL, Stock Parts Dept., enlisted in the Army 
in the summer of 191 8. He was assigned to the Medical Dept. and was 
sent overseas, being stationed at Rochefort, France, where he died 
suddenly, of acute indigestion, on Jan. 22, 1919. 

2nd LIEUT. ALBERT W. CROCKER, Cutter Dept. Office, went to 
France in the fall of 1918 in the Headquarters Co., 66th Coast Artillery, 
where he was serving as a Camouflage Expert. He died of disease on 
Nov. 19, 1918. 

ALONZO W. CROCKER, Grinding Machine Mfg. Dept., entered 
the U. S. Naval Reserve Force in December, 1916. He was sent to 
the Charlestown Navy Yard Apr. 2, 1917, and sailed abroad as seaman, 
serving for thirteen months on the U. S. S. Marietta. He died of disease 
on board ship, Oct. 17, 1918, and was buried at Pauillac, France. 

PATRICK W. CULLIGAN, Gear Dept., was mustered into service 
Sept. 30, 1918, and died of disease at Fort Slocum, N. Y., Oct. 11, 1918, 
after a little more than a week's service in the Army. A widow sur- 
vives him. 

LUIGI D'ANTUONO, Milling Machine Mfg. Dept., was killed in 
action Oct. 16, 1918, after having been in service about six months. 
As a member of Co. M, 310th Infantry, he was participating in an attack 
on enemy positions near St. Juvin in the Meuse-Argonne sector when he 
was struck in the head by a shell and instantly killed. 

ANTONIO D. De CARLO, Grinding Machine Mfg. Dept., Co. L, 
310th Infantry, entered the service May 16, 1918, and was reported 
killed in action, at St. Mihiel Sector, at Thiacourt, on Sept. 16, 1918. 

JOSEPH A. HARDY, Small Tool Dept., entered the service Apr. 
28, 1918, as Private in the 310th Infantry, 78th Division. He died of 
pneumonia in France Sept. 18, 191 8, after serving overseas for about 
four months. 

ARTHUR W. JOHNSON, Attachments Dept. serving as First-Class 
Machinist's Mate in the aviation section of the American Navy, died of 
pneumonia in Quebec, Canada, on Sept. 18, 1918, after about nine 
months' service. 

CHARLES KIERNAN, Screw Machine Mfg. Dept., Private in 
3rd Field Artillery, enlisted June 2, 1918, and died of pneumonia Sept. 
3, 1918, while in service in France. 

BEVERLEY S. LAKE, Advertising Dept., served throughout the war 
as Chief Mechanic of Battery A of the 103rd Field Artillery, and partici- 
pated in all the heavy and effective fighting of this Battery, except for 
a brief period shortly before the Armistice was signed, when he was

attending a Motor School, training for the time when the Battery would 
be motorized. Following the Armistice he was looking forward with 
eagerness to the time when he with the rest of the 26th Division would 
start for home, when he was stricken with pneumonia, and after a short 
illness died on Mar. 12, 1919, and was buried in the American Section 
of the Cemetery at Le Mans, France. 

The Chaplain wrote the young man's mother: "He was buried with 
military honors. His body was conveyed from the Hospital on a 
Caisson drawn by two horses. On either side were French soldiers and 
in the rear American soldiers, with the pallbearers. The Band played 
appropriate music. The coffin was covered with the Stars and Stripes. 
After the body had been lowered into the grave a volley was fired and 
'Taps' sounded. There was a large assemblage of people." 

ROBERT F. MacDONALD, Small Tool Dept., entered the Army 
Aug. 5, 191 8, in the 53rd Field Artillery, and died of pneumonia at Camp 
Travis, Texas, Feb. 6, 1919. 

JOHN C. McKEOWN, Forge Shop, serving as Corporal, Co. K, 
327th Infantry, 82nd Division, was killed in action Oct. 10, 1918, in 
the heavy fighting in the Argonne, France. 

SERGT. LeROY W. MILLER, Time Keepers' Office, first enlisted 
in the Old First Company of the Coast Artillery Corps of the R. I. 
National Guard. Later, he was made Sergeant in Co. A, loist Engi- 
neers, 26th Division. 

He was the first Rhode Island soldier in the American Expeditionary 
Forces to be killed in action, and was posthumously awarded a Con- 
gressional medal for bravery, also the Croix de Guerre as "an excellent 
non-commissioned officer who demonstrated in the fighting sector his 
great devotion." 

He was killed in the course of a bombardment at Ostel, France, in 
the battle of Chemin des Dames, when he was sent forward with a 
raiding party to throw a bridge across a stream so that the Infantry 
might make a crossing. He was in service from Sept. 25, 1917, to the 
time of his death, Mar. ii, 1918. 

2nd LIEUT. HARRY S. ORMSBEE, Time Keepers' Office, eritered

O all men and women connected with the 
Brown & Sharpe Mfg. Co. who gave of 
themselves during the World War, this 
book is a memorial. It tells of patriotic 
endeavor in time of crisis, as well as of 
real achievement; what is most important, 
it tells of great sacrifice — the sacrifice of 

life itself, in behalf of a common country, the greatest 

pledge of devotion which men can offer. 

While the usual thought of war is of those who have 
fought and suffered, there should be, and there is, a great 
deal to relate of those who labored and worked at home, 
in order that the men at the front might be properly 
served. The great war has revealed the existence of much 
besides a deep spirit of patriotism; it has shown how 
patriotism may be made really effective by methods of 
co-operation. The sharing in Liberty Bond subscriptions, 
the cheerful spirit of Red Cross campaigns, the interest in 
the life of the fighting boys when off duty, and the partici- 
pation in garden movements to increase the food supply of 
the country, all of these things have not been performed 
at the behest of statute, but have been the result of a won- 
derful voluntary co-operation impelled by a spirit of devo- 
tion to their country on the part of patriotic folk. 

The record of the Brown & Sharpe people is one in 
which every one takes the greatest satisfaction, and in 
years to come we shall look back upon it not only with an 
increasing interest, but with a pride which now we can 
little appreciate. At least, we may be sure this book will 
tell a story that will not fade in memory as the years 
roll on.

'BROWU\(^m SH^ARPE JWE-^Y 

IFE%E ENgAQET) 

ROM our force 911 entered active service, 
this being about one in every eight of our 
employees. Of these 645 served in the 
Army and 264 in the Navy, the branch of 
service of a few not being known. 

Of this number about 763 have (up to 
the end of the year 1919) returned to 
Brown & Sharpe, of whom more than 
600 are now with us. 

While in the main the enlistment was in the U. S. Service, 
45 served in the Canadian and British forces and 2 in other 
Allied Armies. 

338 in the Army and 108 in the Navy are known to have 
served overseas, in the latter case largely in transport service. 
In spite of all our efforts it has not been possible to secure 
complete records of service, many of the men not having 
been heard from since leaving us and efforts to communi- 
cate with them having failed. As far as known, however, 
the rank and the branches of service are as follows and give 
some idea not only of the widely varied activities of our 
men, but also the varied needs of military service in modern 
warfare. 

Coming as our boys did from civilian life, and usually 
without previous military training, a large percentage of 
them entered the service at the foot of the ladder as privates, 
seamen, etc. Some qualified as officers from the begin- 
ning and promotions even during the short duration of 
America's part in the war were frequent among our men. 
35 are reported as having been Commissioned Officers, 

[17] 



BRANCHES OF SERVICE 



the highest rank being Captain, in both the Army and Navy, 
5 serving with this rank. There were 27 Lieutenants and 
3 Ensigns, 157 Non-Commissioned Officers, Sergeants and 
Corporals in the Army, Machinists' and Gunners' Mates 
and other petty officers in the Navy; and 294 were rated 
men. 

In the various branches of the Army, aside from the 
Infantry, which naturally had the largest number, 82 were 
reported as being in the Coast Artillery, 75 Field and Rail- 
road Artillery, 5 Cavalry, 58 Air Service, 34 Ordnance 
Dept., 23 Quartermasters' Dept., 5 Signal Corps and 30 
Hospital and Medical Depts. 

In the Navy, 140 were reported in the Naval Reserves, 
28 Air Service, 4 Marines, besides miscellaneous. 

Among the "rated men" in all branches of service more 
than one hundred served as mechanics, molders, pattern 
makers and in other trades allied with our business, these 
being largely in the Navy and the Artillery branch of the 
Army. 

Twelve were musicians and buglers, 28 cooks and mess 
attendants, 33 hospital and medical attendants, 8 sappers 
(British Service), besides aviators, balloon pilots, photog- 
raphers, dispatch riders, signalers, radio operators, chauf- 
feurs, wagoners, storekeepers, firemen, etc., and others 
were in service connected with tanks, forestry, railroads, 
poison gas, etc. 

At least two of our men served in the 42nd ("Rainbow") 
Division and one served in Paris after the Armistice in 
connection with the work of the Peace Commission. 

Generally speaking, in whatever capacity our country 
has called our men, whether to serve at home or abroad, 
whether in auxiliary service or on the firing line, they have 
responded loyally and faithfully. All credit and honor 
are due them for that service. While opportunities varied, 
response to the call of duty was within the reach of all. 

Names are entered on the Honor Roll under the Depart- 
ment from which the men went. Stars appear on the 
Honor Roll at the left of the names of those who lost their 
lives in service, and the chevron marks at the right of the 
name of each man who was reported to have served six 
months or more indicate the number of six months' periods 
of service.

"^^ FAYETTE, WE COME!" 

You left the sunny soil of France 

For Freedom's fight across the sea; 
Courts, and the music of the dance, 

At the clear call of Liberty. 
With sword unsheathed, into the fray 

You plunged, to sound of fife and drum; 
Now it is ours that debt to pay; 

So, La Fayette, we come! 

They said, we only cared for gold ; 

A coward race, we would not fight. 
Forgetting how, in days of old. 

Our fathers battled for the right. 
French women tortured, children slain; 

Pillaged by Europe's vilest scum. 
Your country has not called in vain; 

So, La Fayette, we come! 

To us, amid the whirring wheels 

At Brown & Sharpe's, the summons came; 
Each one the thrill of manhood feels 

And answers proudly to his name. 
And though some go, while others stay 

'Mid belts' and pulleys' ceaseless hum. 
Each serves in his appointed way; 

So, La Fayette, we come! 

For Freedom's holy cause we fight, 

With starry banner lifted high. 
Each marches like some youthful knight, 

Resolved to conquer or to die. 
For that high cause we'll fight until 

Our eyes are blind, our lips are dumb; 
E'en though we perish yonder, — still, 

O La Fayette, we come! 

— V.E.Atwell.

T>ISTINgUISHED SE%FICE 

HE modesty of those rendering conspicu- 
ous service has made it difficult to secure 
information so as to give full credit; but 
some personal citations which have come 
to our attention are as follows: 

The U. S. Congressional Medal for Brav- 
ery was awarded to Sergts. Joshua K. 
Broadhead and LeRoy W. Miller (see pages 
11 and 14), also Sergt. Benjamin P. Rosmond, who was deco- 
rated for bravery In aiding wounded on battlefield. 

The Croix de Guerre was awarded by the French Govern- 
ment to Sergts. Joshua K. Broadhead and LeRoy W. Miller; 
also to Lieut. Charles S. Leonard for gallantry In taking 
over three submarine chasers. 

The following were cited for bravery or good work: 
Paul A. Wilcox, by Secretary Daniels, for having risked 
his life In an experiment with a new control device on Naval 
Airplanes; Sergt. John J. Greer, Air Service, Army, flew 
17,500 ft. in the air and was engaged in almost all drives. 
Received citation for good work, being promoted to Sergt. 
1st class on the battlefield; Lieut. LeRoy C. Flint, commended 
for bravery by Commanding Officer for service In connec- 
tion with fire at Seaplane Hangar; Frank H. Flagg, com- 
mended by Secretary Daniels for service in extinguishing 
a fire on shipboard; Carl E. Vennberg, reported by Captain 
for bravery In rescuing a French girl from drowning; George 
Milligan, Jr., of Battery C, 26th Division, received citation 
for bravery from General Pershing; William F. Charboneau 
received a citation signed by General Pershing for volun- 
tarily contracting a fever for experimental purposes. 

James B. Mason, a Brown & Sharpe apprentice, re- 

[621 



DISTINGUISHED SERVICE 



ceived a citation from Secretary Daniels for gallant conduct 
in rescue work when the ship on which .he was a passenger 
was sunk by torpedoes in the Irish Sea. He voluntarily 
aided in the launching of two boats and sought his own 
safety without a life preserver as the ship sank, swimming 
until he found a raft not so crowded, and to which a Captain 
of the U. S. Navy, with both legs broken, was clinging. 
After assisting the latter, and being picked up by an English 
motor launch, he aided the crew in rescuing survivors until 
he himself became exhausted. Nearly five hundred men, 
women and children lost their lives in this disaster. 

Albert J. Dunbar received a citation from Secretary 
Daniels for giving some of his blood in a transfusion opera- 
tion to save the life of a comrade. 

Leslie W. Buzzell received a citation for bravery in the 
battle of Chateau Thierry where he was severely wounded. 

Disabling Casualties. There was one case of an em- 
ployee being blinded in battle, that of Jesse A. Whaley, 
who went from our Sewing Machine Dept. He was serving 
in Co. K of the 310th Infantry. A hand grenade burst 
in his face when engaged in hand-to-hand fighting in one 
of the last battles of the war. 

A letter written by him from the Baltimore Hospital 
where he is now in training tells of his experiences, and be- 
cause they are typical of what many of our boys went 
through up to the point of his being wounded, and be- 
cause his letter shows such a courageous spirit in facing his 
misfortune, it is given somewhat fully. He says: • 

"I was drafted Apr. 27, 1918, and left the following day for Camp 
Dix, N. J. I stayed at this Camp long enough to be vaccinated, inocu- 
lated and equipped for overseas duty; sailed from Philadelphia for 
Halifax and meeting a convoy of sixteen ships, started for England. 
On reaching there we were taken to Folkstone and shipped across the 
Channel to Calais the next morning. There we were equipped with 
English rifles and gas masks. We left this camp four days later and 
journeyed by train to the northern part of France, where we backed up 
the British until the end of June and through part of July, when we were 
moved to the Arras front. 

"We stayed there until the middle of August, when we moved over 
to the St. Mihiel front, where we took up our position outside the town 
of Thiacourt. Saturday night at midnight, on September 22, the 3rd 
Battalion of the 310th Regiment went over the top for a forty minute 
engagement, and over one-third of the men were lost. This was where

DISTINGUISHED SERVICE 



I met with my injury. I was taken to Central France, and later sent 
to a Base Hospital, where I was detained for nearly two months, and 
on December 20 sailed for America. 

"We landed at Newport News on New Year's Day, and were taken to 
Hampton, where we lived in the Old Soldiers' Home until January 11. 
We were then taken to General Hospital No. 7, Guilford, Baltimore, 
Md. This Hospital took charge of all the eye cases that were sent from 
overseas. It was later turned over to the American Red Cross, which 
is now re-educating the soldiers. I am taking the following studies: 
typewriting, English, literature, music, woodwork, Braille, and a short 
course in manual training. I am studying to be a masseur, and my 
training will end June 25, 1920. 

"I hope that I shall be able to render as good service to the world in 
the years to come, without my sight, as I did before the war." 

Another letter was received from one of our boys in a

"I was blown up by a shell in the battle of Cambrai and lost my right 
leg. I have seen a lot and have suffered terribly. 

"I lay from 5 p.m. Oct. 21, 191 8, until 9 a.m. next day on the field of 
battle before I was picked up by the stretcher bearers. The battle 
was raging and shells were thick. I have been under the knife on the 
operating table six times and have had five reamputations. But I am 
feeling fine now and am getting stronger each day. I have my arti- 
ficial leg and can walk quite well. 

"I expect to be discharged on the 5 th of February so it will be two 
years' service." 

Another of our men also lost a leg in the Canadian service. 

The total number of our Service Men reported as wounded 
in action, additional to those who lost their lives, was twenty- 
five, and gassed, fifteen. Without doubt these totals are 
far from complete.

i]NE of our apprentices, in the Air Service, 
was located at Key West, and did mechani- 
cal work in connection with aeroplanes, 
also considerable flying, in some cases 
acting as pilot. On one occasion it was 
necessary to transport an officer with mes- 
sages and three aeroplanes started in order 
to make sure of reaching the destination. 
The flight was by night. Before they had gone far a flare 
signal was seen which made it necessary for the others to 
go to the help of the one in distress; and after a further 
flight one of the two remaining planes gave out, so that 
the one on which our apprentice was flying was the only 
one remaining in service. A pipe on this failed and tem- 
porary methods of repair not being available he held the 
broken parts with his hand until the flight was completed. 

Several of our men were in battle with submarines on the 
way over, and in the Mediterranean, resulting in sinking or 
capturing same. 

One, serving with the British Army, assisted in the cap- 
ture of some of the largest field guns used by the enemy. 

A work assisted in by a number of our employees was the 
laying of 70,000 mines in the North Sea, from Norway 
to Scotland, and later in removing same, in which latter 
service several were still engaged when last heard from. 

At the time of the influenza epidemic one of our boys 
reports that on one of the trips he made 106 died and were 
buried at sea. 

Another wrote that seven hundred Canadian soldiers, ship-

wrecked at Blackrock, Nova Scotia, were saved by the 
Revenue boat on which he served. 

One boy reports making eighteen trips across to Scotland, 
England, Denmark, Holland, Belgium, France and Italy. 

Another that he was on the vessel that accidentally sunk 
H. M. S. Lochgrove in a heavy fog. 

A number served in Germany with the Army of Occu- 
pation. 

One member of the Flying Corps was 152 hours in the air 
besides 52 hours on Aerial Submarine Patrol, and had a 
record for height of 17,500 ft. 

One served in the Panama Canal Zone, another in the 
Pacific and later in Siberia. 

A special line of service was "Instructor in the use of an 
optical instrument used for fire control," while others 
served as flying instructors. 

Many were held in this country on mechanical work and 
some of these rendered distinguished service as officers in 
charge of important and extensive manufacturing opera- 
tions. 

Only one of our Service Men has been reported as having 
been taken prisoner, William H. Sefton, who served in the 
103rd Field Artillery, and was captured at Seicheprey on 
Apr. 21, 1918, with Sergeant Tucker and others. 

One was serving in the crew of the U. S. S. Vresident 
hincoln when it was torpedoed by a German U-Boat on 
May 31, 1918.

BATTLE EXPERIENCES. "There was a very thrilling air fight 
between a French and German aeroplane. At a height of about 10,000 ft. 
the Frenchman attacked the German and the French anti-aircraft 
guns opened fire on the Boche as did the French aviator with his machine 
guns. The scrap became too hot for the Boche and all of a sudden he 
started to fall, end over end and sideways, for about 8,000 ft., and we all 
thought they had 'got' him; but when he was within about 2,000 ft. 
of the ground he righted the machine, which he evidently had under 

[66] 



EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS FROM THE FRONT 



perfect control all the time, and glided off toward the German lines with 
perfect ease. All this time the Frenchman was swooping down with 
him in terribly steep spirals, and when the Boche righted himself, the 
Frenchman opened up again with his machine gun and gave him a fine 
chase, but the Boche escaped. It was the most spectacular thing I 
ever hope to see." 

Apr. 14, 1918. 
"We have now taken up a position on the firing line and believe me we 
know now that there is a war going on. You are right; war is all the 
Hell you imagine it must be. To say that we have received our baptism 
of fire would be to put it mildly — we have been ducked in it and a few 
of our men have been asked to pay the price; but, thank God, only a very 
few thus far. We* no longer have any boys amongstus — we all aremen 
here for a purpose and we know it and are set to do our best." 



Apr. 22, 1918. 

"We had an exciting time the night we came up here. They shelled 
us all the way up. I can tell you it gives a creepy feeling to hear those 
shells coming through the air at you and you hold your breath hoping 
that they will go over your head; but they came as close to us as I care 
to have them that night and I was mighty glad when I got my head 
under cover. Well, in spite of the fact that they shell us, we give them 
as good as they send. 

"The ground is all plowed up by shells and one could plant a garden 
if he dared to linger outside the dugout. 

"The boys have put in a lot of hard work and they are going night and 
day, in fact most of the fighting is done at night and that means we have 
to get ready for it in the daytime and some of the boys are pretty much 
all in. You see there is a lot of digging to be done and the mud is the 
worst thing imaginable to handle. It is just like chewing gum. 

"We have been up night and day lately moving guns, lugging ammu- 
nition and repairing damage done by shellfire, and I can tell you every 
man is busy all the time he is not sleeping, and the strain is telling on 
some of them; but we sure do get good food, that is as far as Army food 
goes. Of course there is nothing fancy about it but we get the best the 
Government has up here at the front and the boys sure do deserve it. 

"We were under heavy shellfire from the German guns for 5 hours 
and one shell made a hit on the dugout in which I was and bent ii 
steel railroad rails double and carried a log about 5 ft. long and 2 ft. 
in diameter which was on top of the dugout out into the lot about 
30 ft. To make matters worse, it blew the gasproof doors off our dug- 
out and in came the gas. One breath was enough and i't didn't take us 
long to get into our masks in which we stayed for 4 hours. 

"I can tell you we put in one awful night. They shelled us without 
a letup for 10 hours and the ground around here is just one mass of 
holes and they made at least one hit on every one of our dugouts and 
it was only by good fortune that we all came out alive.

"Well, we came over here to fight and we are getting what we came 
for and plenty of it. The people back home can't realize what we are 
up against; but we are bound to see it through never mind what happens. 

"Things which the boys thought they would never get used to are 
of minor importance now and a rat sitting on your stomach in the night 
does not bother you much," 

May 19, 1918. 
"It seems very peculiar to see the explosion of the shells before you 
hear the bang of the gun that fired it or the roar of the shell in transit. 
I have been watching some very large shells burst at a distance of maybe 
two miles from me in a battery position and as you watch you see a 
big cloud of smoke and dust and other debris go soaring into the air 
and then comes a far distant boom of a gun on the German side followed 
by the ever increasing roar and whistle of the shell on its way and finally, 
after the smoke has greatly thinned out, the terrific bang of the ex- 
plosion." 

Aug. 10, 1918. 

"We were in the big drive (Chateau Thierry) and it certainly was all 
war all the way through, and we did a lot of hard fighting. In a good 
many cases we were on the go night and day. 

"We passed through village after village where only a few hours 
before our Infantry had driven the Huns out and everywhere one could 
see the signs of severe fighting and we certainly saw what real war was 
like and saw many dead, both German and our own men, and all kinds 
of equipment, both German and American, were scattered around every- 
where. 

"It is a sad sight to see some of the French villages which we have 
been through. The houses are nothing but wrecks from shell fire and 
pillage, but it is a whole lot of satisfaction to know that we helped 
drive the Huns out. 

"The drive which we were in was certainly a big setback to the Huns, 
for everywhere we could see indications that their plans were to go 
straight through to Paris and they were well on their way when they 
were stopped and shoved back. We took unlimited supplies of am- 
munition, of all sizes, and everywhere there were indications that they 
left in a hurry and that they had not expected any drive in that direc- 
tion. In some places in our advance the German aeroplanes flew so 
low over our heads that the iron crosses on their wings could easily be 
seen, and they dropped bombs and turned their machine guns on us, 
but we all got rifles or almost anything that would shoot and gave them 
as warm a reception as they sent." 

Nov. 10, 1919. 

"It was at Verdun that we suffered heavily and buried six of our 

boys. At Gloria, just outside of Verdun, is a little piece of Rhode 

Island, for three more of our boys were buried there. That was a sad 

[68] 



EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS FROM THE FRONT 



night, and a terrible one, for the Boche got two direct hits on our first 
piece. That was a night when I really never expected to see daylight 
again. It's impossible to forget. Verdun — it's all that has been said 
of it,— just barren hills, torn with shellfire and red with blood." 

Lamsdorf Prison, Germany, July 24, 1918. 
"One day we heard that the Red Cross had sent us some packages. 
After some arguments with the Officer of the Prison Guard we got the 
packages and I'll say they were life-savers. Later our Red Cross 
packages came regularly and the Y. M. C. A. supplied us with athletic 
material and books. It also brought enough instruments for a band 
and we soon had music that would wake the dead." 

May I, 1918. 

"I called at the big Y. M. C. A. and imagine my surprise to find real 
American girls waiting on the canteen counter and when one of them 
asked me, 'Would you like a fried egg sandwich.'" I nearly did a double 
back fly. I had the sandwich. One girl, very good as a pianist, was 
occupied playing the piano while a crowd of soldiers stood around 
singing all the popular songs from home. 

"They had a canteen, lunch room, lounging room, music room, writing 
room, billiard room, and accommodations for staying over night. 

"The Salvation Army is doing good work. They make doughnuts 
and pies for the soldiers, but as our town had been bombarded constantly 
of late, they had to haul stakes and go to a safer place, so our doughnuts 
and pies are no more. One day a shell went through the roof of the 
building they were occupying and totally destroyed a large batch of 
said pastry; fortunately no one was badly hurt, but we felt the loss 
keenly. 

"I want to put in a good word for the Y. M. C. A. workers here. 
Almost anywhere you can find some and I'll take off my hat to them. . . . 
You can all rest assured that the money donated in America for the 
Y. M. C. A. is doing its work. 



"We had some good fun sporting the rounds of the village, which 
consists in visiting the 'Y. M.' and the Salvation Army tent. At the 
tent we usually were able to buy pie or doughnuts and coffee and 
oranges. At the 'Y. M.' there was a piano and sometimes there was 
an entertainment for the boys." 



" I am writing here in the K. of C. hut where everything possible 
is done for our comfort. This is the nearest approach to home I have 
found in France. The boys are well satisfied and are not backward 
in saying so when dispersed to their various ships and camps."

THOUGHTS OF MOTHER AND HOME. " I am glad I am 
going. It is what I want to do myself and I know you want me to do 
it. You wouldn't have a slacker for a son and I couldn't be one." 

May 12, 1918. 
"To-day is Mother's Day. God knows it, too, for out of the weeks of 
rain he gave us a beautiful day. The trees are wonderfully green, and 
all through the grass little spring flowers are budding forth. The 
air is full of spring. As you Mothers think of your boys, we boys think 
of our Mothers. In those golden years of yours we will be better trained 
than ever to guard you and to make you happy, as you once did for us." 

June 10, 1918. 
"I am writing this lying out in back of the gunpit under some little 
birches with flowers and mosquitoes and everything around, just like 
at home. Occasionally a sniping gun booms, and high up and floating 
lazily is an observation balloon, while once in a while an aeroplane sails 
overhead. . . . The gas mask and steel helmet by my side are the only 
indications of anything warlike here under the little birches." 

Nov. 5, 1918. 
"When your letter came I was sitting on the edge of my bunk, away 
down deep in a big damp dugout. It was dark with only a little candle 
to make the shadows deeper and the gloom more dense. I was tired, 
sick and sad, covered with mud from head to foot, and feeling low. 
A few hours before we had been up to our advanced position — a danger- 
ous but important one. That night with its horrors, with its wonderful 
examples of heroism displayed by some of the boys, will never be for- 
gotten. I was thinking of some of my comrades still there, never to 
return. So you can imagine how I felt; but your letter was a Godsend 
and somehow I felt a lot better after reading it." 

ANECDOTES. "Each day finds us in our various schools, mine, of 
course, being the repair shops. At present I am a sort of repair or 
garage man. What a wild bunch of Americans acting as chauffeurs 
can't do to a truck isn't worth the mentioning, so you can picture the 
repair shop as one busy place. I landed a dirty job and if I did half as 
much work as the appearance of my overalls gives me credit for, I'd 
be a whirlwind. The job has some good features because Buddie and 
I always insist on testing our work in the form of a little ride around, 
— joy-riding in a five-ton truck with solid tires!" 



"One mother wrote her son wanting to know if he was going to 
church regularly. If she could see what is left of the churches around 
here, she would realize that church was no safe place to go."

"I was just looking out of the window and saw the funniest use of a 
gas mask I have seen yet. Two chaps are beating the dust out of their 
blankets and are working away with their masks on, as if they were 
made for that purpose. Yankee soldiers are always up to some stunt." 

"I was riding the other day on a French horse. They may be good 
for a Frenchman, but an American needs a rudder put on them to 
make them go where he wants them to." 

"We are just finishing a new 'abri,' or shelter, just off the gunpit. 
It has now reached that stage of completion that it is partially habitable, 
so I have my quarters there in order to be near the gun in case of a 
barrage call. To-day spent part of my time making a wall desk and 
chair, the latter being a work of art, burlap sandbags being 'preferred' 
for upholstery instead of leather. The 'indirect system of lighting' is 
used, consisting of a candle, cleverly placed in a tin breadbox so as to get 
light without any shining outside. 'Running water' close at hand — 
in fact sometimes too close and we have to pump it out." 



"When I come back, if room should be scarce, don't worry, because 
if there is any 'ground' in the back yard I can build the slickest little 
dugout you ever saw. That is one of the new trades I am learning." 



IN REST CAMP. "It certainly seems strange to be away from the 
noise of the guns for a while and it is hard to get out of the habit of 
looking for a gas mask every time you hear an automobile horn or sitting 
up in bed every time a horse makes a noise like a shell. I can tell you 
that if I ever come out of this war alive, there are certain noises that I 
will never forget." 

AFTER THE ARMISTICE. "We were relieved from the front two 
days after the Armistice was signed, and then began one of our famous 
hikes through France. We walked for about four days doing about 35 
kilometers (22 miles) a day, staying in old French barns in small villages 
nights when we finally reached a small town where we stayed for three 
days. Here we took all our guns and equipment to a rail head and also 
turned over all our horses and harness. Then we left that town and 
started off on foot, carrying all our personal equipment on our backs, 
doughboy fashion. It rained most of the time. Then all we did was 
to hang around cold, wet barns and hunt for rumors of going home. 

"They came around one morning and informed several of us that we 
were on the next list to go on furlough. We did not care much whether 
we went or not at the time as now that the fighting was over we were all 
anxious to get started for home, but we preferred 'most anything to 
hanging around and doing foot drill, so we packed up our things and 
reported at ten o'clock the next morning and were marched to the 

1711 



EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS FROM THE FRONT 



railroad station. Here we waited for our train until five-thirty that 
afternoon, and when it finally did come much to our disappointment it 
consisted entirely of those 'famous' cars that they ship horses in over 
here. We piled in, about fifteen of us in one car, and as it was getting 
late and we had no straw in the car the first stop we made we managed 
to find a bale and that helped some. 

"Needless to say we did not pass a very comfortable night and the 
next morning we were not in very good spirits; but as the morning 
wore away we brightened up as we were passing through the most 
beautiful part of France and the scenery certainly was wonderful. 

"We landed at Aix-les-Bains and were each handed a ticket with the 
name of a hotel on it and then we were taken to the hotel and here our 
spirits sure did rise. Three other boys and myself were given a fine big 
room with two big beds in it in a good hotel. I can tell you it was almost 
too much for us. Just imagine, after ten months of sleeping on the 
ground, in dugouts and in old barns, to be shown a real bed with sheets 
on it. We looked at one another and I can tell you it was not long 
before our spirits had risen about lOO per cent and we set out to make 
the best of our surroundings. After we washed up we felt some better 
and we started out to look the town over. The big thing here is the 
Y. M. C. A., and they certainly have a wonderful place and do about 
everything for the boys. I never realized before what they did with all 
their money, but my opinion has changed and they certainly show the 
boys a good time." 



[72] 








T least 60 of our employees served in the 
26th "Yankee" Division, which was orig- 
inally made up entirely of New England 
Volunteer troops. The record of this 
Division is thus of special interest, not only 
to Rhode Islanders, but also to Brown & 
Sharpe employees, and this local interest 
is further enhanced by the distinguished 
record of service which It rendered. 

Owing to efficient organization these were the first Na- 
tional Guard troops to be sent abroad, sailing in September, 
1917, and were In active service on Feb. 5, 1918, shots from 
their 75' s being the first fired by the National Guard in the 
war. 

On the battle line north of Toul the Division took over a 
sector of twelve miles early in April, 1918 — the longest that 
had been held by an American Division. Of its record 
there the French General said: 

"Under the distinguished command of their Chief, Gen- 
eral Edwards, the high-spirited soldiers of the 'Yankee' 
Division have taught the enemy some bitter lessons. They 
have taught him to realize the stanch vigor of the sons of 
the Great Republic, fighting for the world's freedom." 

While the famous Second Division, including the 5th and 
6th Marines, immortalized Itself by checking the Huns in 
the Chateau Thierry drive at Belleau Wood (since named 
by the French, "The Wood of the Marine Brigade"), it 
remained for the "Yankee" Division, which relieved the 
Second on July 9, 1918, to drive back the enemy. 

It was in this drive that Epides and Trugny Wood became 
hard-won prizes after some of the bitterest fighting the 26th 
Division ever knew. 

[73] 



THE 26TH •'YANKEE" DIVISION 



General Edwards highly commended the Division in 
General Orders for its accomplishments in this drive, and 
from the famous French General Degoutte of the Sixth 
Army came the thrilling words: "The 26th Division alone 
is responsible for the whole Allied advance on the Marne. 
They are *shock troops' -par excellence." 

St. Mihiel, in September, 1918, added another to the 
long list of victories in which the 26th participated. In this 
action the Division captured 2,568 prisoners, besides much 
war material. 

Following St. Mihiel they were in the thick of the fighting 
north of Verdun, until the signing of the Armistice. 

General Bamford, who was then in command, said, "From 
your entry into the battle line in February, 1918, as a Divi- 
sion of recruits, until the cessation of hostilities, when you 
laid down your arms fighting in the front line as a veteran 
Division, you have shown yourselves worthy sons of the 
country that gave you birth." 

This Division saw more continuous fighting than any 
other, not excepting the United States Regulars or Allied 
troops. Before sailing for home, the entire Division was 
reviewed by General Pershing and staff, at Pontvallain 
and one of the boys wrote: "It was a wonderful spectacle. 
About 27,000 men, all with helmets on, and fixed bayonets, 
passed in review. The Infantry staged a bayonet charge 
over a hill, and that was a wonderful sight. A Regiment 
of Infantry charged at a time, one after another, about 
2,400 men to a Regiment, and the bayonets flashing and the 
men advancing in a dashing line, reminded me of a driving 
rain, when the rain is coming down, in sheets, slantwise." 

On the return to America in March, 1919, the pride 
felt by New England in this Division was fully shown at 
the great demonstration held in Boston, when tens of 
thousands waited long in line to welcome home this vet- 
eran Division, led by Gen. Clarence O. Edwards. Para- 
phrasing the words of ^Tigaro" to Pershing, "New England 
acclaimed them with the enthusiasm of her great mo- 
ments." 

103rd FIELD ARTILLERY. This Regiment, with sev- 
eral other units of the 26th Division, was most intimately 
identified with the city of Providence, and therefore with our 

[741 



THE 26TH "YANKEE" DIVISION 



own employees, as at least thirty of our men served in the 
Rhode Island Batteries which were included in it. It was a 
Regiment of heavy field artillery equipped with 155 mm. 
(6 inch) French howitzers. 

The 103rd Field Artillery was not only engaged in all 
the fighting of the 26th Division, but in the drive north of 
Chateau Thierry, in the eventful month of July, 1918, was 
retained in action after the Infantry of the Division had 
reached its limit of endurance and had been withdrawn. 
The place of the Infantry was filled by another Division, but 
the 103rd Field Artillery remained in action for another 
eleven da5^s, first as auxiliary Artillery for the 42nd, whose 
Infantry went through it and took the line. 

Successively this Regiment -of Artillery supported three 
different Divisions after its own, before it was withdrawn, 
exhausted, on August 5. 

One of the boys wrote home, following this drive: "I 
would not have believed we could have endured it, but 
it was the knowledge that we were driving the Huns before 
us which kept us going." 

In addition to those who directly left our employ to 
go into the service in the Rhode Island Batteries, might 
be mentioned former employees of this Company, Norman 
D. MacLeod, who for heroism and efficient service on the 
field of battle was promoted to the rank of Major, and his 
brother, Colin Gordon MacLeod, who through successive 
promotions became Captain of Battery A.

OANING money to the United States 
Government was an entirely new proposi- 
tion to Brown & Sharpe workmen, but 
when the call came in June, 1917, the 
response was generous, and the steady 
increase in the amounts subscribed to suc- 
cessive Loans as they followed quickly, one 
upon another, showed that the liberal re- 
sponse made to the first appeal was not a "spurt" only, but 
an evidence of a deep-seated purpose to "see it through" 
and an intention to sacrifice to whatever extent the needs of 
the Government required. 

The statement was made by the Head Chaplain of the 
First Division, Rev. H. R. Talbot, that the fact that the 
Loans and Drives were taken care of as well as they were, 
at home, was a tremendous factor in the maintenance 
of the morale of the men at the front. 

The first canvass showed subscriptions amounting to 
$118,600.00, in and out of the shop, made by 29 per cent 
of the working force. 

As soon as these had been paid for at $3.00 per week, for 
each $50.00 Bond, the Second Loan was launched. This 
was in October, 1917, and to stimulate interest banners were 
offered as prizes for large and small departments, these 
being won by the Milling Machine Dept. and the Pipe 
Shop; $262,050.00 was raised by subscriptions from 69 
per cent of our employees. 

In April, 1918, the Third Liberty Loan was floated, and a 
goal of $300,000.00 was set for which to work. 

While this amount seemed to many beyond our reach, a 
strenuous campaign, using the Old Shop Bell as a talis- 

[76] 



LIBERTY LOAN CAMPAIGNS 



man to be dedicated and rung as a Liberty Bell when we 
went "over the top," resulted in subscriptions amounting 
to $322,150.00, over 75 per cent of the working force having 
a share in the victory. 

The winners of the prize banners in this contest were the 
Hardening Dept. and the Electricians. Six departments 
had 100 per cent of their members subscribing. 

Noontime meetings were held to arouse interest, and 
the Foundry "put it over" the rest of the shop by securing 
the Harry Lauder Band for an enthusiastic demonstration 
at one of these meetings. 

The banners for the winpers and certificates for de- 
partments reaching 100 per cent were awarded by Henry 
D. Sharpe, Treasurer of the Company, at a great noontime 
rally. 

Fourth Liberty Loan. "One Hundred Thousand for the 
First, Two Hundred Thousand for the second, Three Hun- 
dred Thousand for the Third, — Can We Make It Four 
Hundred Thousand for the Fourth .?" was the challenge which 
appeared on all the bulletin boards in October, 1918 — a 
challenge which the shop met in a whirlwind campaign to 
"Knock the Kaiser off the Earth," the Kaiser being repre- 
sented as standing shakily on the earth, with Uncle Sam 
coming down the line with the "big stick," — "Fourth Liberty 
Loan." This was in the form of a great structure erected 
on the front of the No. 1 Building, 150 ft. long with figures 
15 ft. high. As a result of this campaign long before its close 
we had $440,350.00 subscribed, and many ready to go after 
"Red Feathers" to indicate a second subscription if their 
enthusiasm had not been restrained. To help this cam- 
paign an employee sold a diamond ring for $500.00 and 
invested the amount in Bonds. 

The prize banners in this contest were won by the Small 
Tool Dept. and the Pipe Shop, Honorable Mention, with 
an accompanying banner, being accorded the Messenger 
Dept. because of the exceptional sacrifice their subscriptions 
indicated. 

This loan was shared in by 88 per cent of our employees, 
and when the Four Hundred Thousand goal was passed, as 
announced at one of the noontime meetings, the enthu- 
siasm expressed itself in an impromptu parade with the

"Kaiser" as its objective, and Uncle Sam was aided, not 
only in knocking the Kaiser off the earth, but in tearing 
him to small bits, to be carried off as souvenirs. 

One of the boys wrote home from France in September 
regarding this Loan: "Nobody over here worries about it 
for we all know that it will be well attended to by the folks 
back home," and it was. 

Fifth ''^Victory^^ Liberty Loan. After the exceptional 
efforts and sacrifices on the part of employees not only in 
making subscriptions to Liberty Loans but in giving finan- 
cial help to all the War activities, the Fifth "Victory" 
Loan, coming as it did after the signing of the Armistice, 
was approached with misgivings and a serious question 
as to whether an adequate response would be made; but 
again the most optimistic predictions were surpassed and 
$376,200.00 was subscribed. 

Again the Hardening Dept. was victor among the large 
departments; the Pipe Shop won among the small. Each 
was awarded an electrically illuminated trophy with the 
laurel wreath of victory as the chief motif. 

The subscriptions by employees to these five Loans netted 
a total of $1,400,750.00 for the use of the Government, as

wATi^sAvrngs sociEriES 

T the beginning of the year 1918, when 
the plan for loaning money to the Govern- 
ment by means of Thrift and War Savings 
Stamps was launched, the Brown & Sharpe 
Company at once co-operated by arranging 
plans to facilitate the selling of stamps to' 
their employees. This resulted in the pur- 
chase of several hundred dollars' worth of 
stamps each week during the early months of the year. It 
was not, however, until War Savings Societies were organ- 
ized in June, and active competition encouraged between 
clubs and departments, that the sales of stamps jumped 
to a point where our factory was classed among the leaders 
in the industries of the entire nation in this form of saving. 

The 246 societies divided into 35 groups entered during 
the remainder of the year 1918 into strenuous competition 
for the weekly honor of holding the triangular pennants 
which the Company had offered, and the contest between 
departments for the silver cup, also offered by the Company, 
proved an additional stimulus to increased purchase of 
stamps. 

The average weekly purchase of stamps for the remainder 
of the year was nearly $5,000.00, or more than ten times what 
it had been before the societies were organized. The cup 
was won by the Hardening Dept. and to celebrate this, 
as well as other victories and to welcome home its service 
men, it gave a dinner at Elks' Hall. 

Banners were offered by the State committee each month 
for the clubs securing the highest per capita subscriptions 
throughout the State and these came in increasing numbers 
to the Brown & Sharpe clubs, so that by the end of the 

[79] 



WAR SAVINGS SOCIETIES 



year 1919 one hundred and twenty-seven of these banners 
had been awarded to our clubs. The total amount saved by 
our employees by this method up to the end of the year 1918 
was $146,793.20. 

1919. Many feeling that the war was over and that 
there was no further object in saving, dropped the purchase 
of W. S. S. at the end of the year 1918. A new campaign 
and the offering of a new prize in the form of a "golden 
eagle" as well as shields for the group competition in de- 
partments started the interest afresh and the total for the 
year 1919, even without the stimulus of the war, was greater 
than for the previous year, being $164,951.09. 

The interest of the W. S. S. so far purchased by our 
employees amounts to about $15,000.00 and this added 
to the interest on Liberty Bonds makes a grand total of 
$80,760.00 annual returns in interest from these investments.

VEN before America entered the war, 
the appea] of the Red Cross came to the 
American people, and assistance in the 
good work of this organization was given 
in many ways. 

When, however, our country was forced 
into war, the first of the popular appeals 
— appeals which became a vital part of 
the war service — was for membership in the American Red 
Cross. Late in March, 1917, when this campaign was un- 
dertaken, a canvass of our employees resulted in securing 
3,567 members with a total of $3,833.00. 

This showing was at the time considered a notable achieve- 
ment by Red Cross officials, although it represented but 
58 per cent of the employees. This was before America 
had been impressed as a people with the thought that all 
had a vital part to play in carrying on the war, and before 
the determination of the nation to win was fully indicated 
by the sacrifices her citizens stood ready to make. 

In this first membership drive a record worthy of mention 
was made by the Laboring Dept., 98 per cent of whom be- 
came members. 

Following soon after was a drive for direct contributions 
to which our employees subscribed many thousand dollars, 
largely through outside solicitation, so that the figures 
were not available to add to our total. 

At Christmas time, 1917, there was another membership 
drive, and the Brown & Sharpe membership was raised to 
5,141, — 70 per cent of the working force joining at the shop, 



[81 



THE AMERICAN RED CROSS 



besides outside members; $5,497.00 was collected at that 
time. 

At a third membership drive in 1918 the total enrol- 
ment was 5,317, — 86 per cent of the entire force, — $5,468.20 
being secured. 

In November, 1919, the fourth drive netted $5,445.00 
with the largest membership thus far recorded — a result 
which brought warm words of commendation from the Red 
Cross officials. 

Prize banners were awarded in these contests to the 
Small Tool Dept., Planer Dept., Foundry, Hardening 
Dept. (twice). Pattern Shop, Grinding Dept. and Pipe Shop. 

Among the prizes won by Brown & Sharpe employees 
in the Garden Contests were club prizes amounting to 
$130.00, which was donated to the American Red Cross by 
the gardeners and donations from the Coal Club and by the 
Grinding and Hardening Depts. added $125.00. 

In May, 1918, a Red Cross canvass of our employees was 
made for contributions toward the fund of One Hundred 
Million Dollars then needed to carry on the work. This 
resulted in 5,317 contributors turning in $6,041.82 to the 
Red Cross Treasury. Thus the direct contributions from 
the Brown & Sharpe employees to the Red Cross cause 
amounted to $26,540.02. 

During one of these drives an Armenian employee on 
taking out a $500.00 insurance policy under the Brown & 
Sharpe plan was asked to name his beneficiary. He re- 
plied that as his relatives had all been killed in Armenia, 
he would make the American Red Cross his beneficiary. 

In the first canvass for membership so much enthusiasm 
was aroused that in almost every department throughout 
the factory flags and patriotic decorations, placed there 
by the workmen, were soon in evidence, followed by service 
flags as men from the respective departments left for the 
front, so that throughout the war every department of the 
shop showed its sympathy and spirit of loyalty by this 
visible means.

UNITED WAR WORK CAMPAIGN 



cjmpjig:m^ 



URING the early part of the war liberal 
contributions were made from time to time 
to each of the seven organizations which 
afterwards united in December, 1918, in 
the great campaign to secure the United 
War Work Fund. 

In some of the early campaigns the con- 
tributions from our employees were largely 
outside of the Brown & Sharpe Works, but subscriptions 
raised directly in our works for these various causes amounted 
to a large sum. 

The first of these was the Y. M. C. A. Red Triangle 
War Fund, in the fall of 1917. A month later contributions 
to the Knights of Columbus War Camp Fund were received, 
followed in February, 1918, by a collection for the Salvation 
Army War Camp Fund, another subscription for the Salva- 
tion Army being taken in May, 1919. In October, 1919, a 
canvass for Jewish Relief for War Sufferers was made, all 
these various contributions totaling $5,077.81. 

In the United War Work Campaign of November, 1918, 
prizes were again offered for the winning department, and 
a spirited campaign was conducted, resulting in securing 
$22,204.55, — 91 per cent of the employees contributing. 
The winning department in this contest was the Stock 
Room, a feature of the award being that besides the de- 
partment banner, an individual ribbon was awarded to 
each employee of the department. 

Another activity, showing a desire to serve our boys 
abroad in every possible way, was the raising of funds for 
the Providence Journars "Our Boys in France Tobacco 
Fund." Several of the departments organized clubs which 
made regular contributions to this cause, and as far as the 
records have been obtained these clubs turned in $1,338.99 
for this purpose. A Benefit Concert for the Tobacco Fund 
was also held in November, 1918, at Infantry Hall, under 
the leadership of C. B. Long, the talent being composed en-

tirely of Brown & Sharpe employees. The net proceeds 
amounted to $1,225.91, which made a total of $2,564.90 
contributed by Brown & Sharpe employees to the Tobacco 
Fund.

One department, the Flask Shop connected with the 
Foundry employing over 40 men, made a record of 100 
per cent subscriptions and gifts in all war drives. 

As a recognition of the services of those who took part 
in the concert and in order to raise money for a Welcome 
Home Fund for our Service Men, a dance was held at 
Rhodes' on Feb. 14, 1919, which was a great success, netting 
$718.38, which with money received from a football game 
and other sources gave a fund of $1,025.07. This together 
with a contribution from the Company was used for a 
Welcome Home Celebration, held on Oct. 30, 1919, when 
nearly 1,200 were in attendance, including about 450 of our 
Service Men, who were the guests of their shopmates. 

An entertainment and buffet luncheon were provided, 
and William A. Viall, Secretary of the Company, made the 
address welcoming the boys home. 

Besides this general welcome there were a number of 
Welcome Home events for Department Service Men — 
an example of which was the Supply Dept., a fund of over 
$300.00 having been raised for the purpose.

ON THE JOB AS WAR PRODUCERS 




0:A(^ the JO^B ^S WA%JPROTfUCERS 

HEN the question was asked by the Gov- 
ernment as to what service the Brown & 
Sharpe Mfg. Co. could best perform to aid 
in winning the war, the accepted answer 
was that because of the urgent need of 
their machinery and tools they should in 
the main continue to manufacture their 
regular line, speeding up to increase pro- 
duction to the limit. 

This policy was followed, meeting and overcoming the 
difficulties arising from the loss of over 900 men to enter 
the service and of many others who left for other jobs. 

In spite of these drains on the working force an excep- 
tionally large nucleus of experienced and skilled employees 
remained and made possible by their loyal and unremit- 
ting effort the assimilation of large numbers of new and 
inexperienced employees, including more than a thousand 
*'girls"; this, while still keeping up and increasing production 
and maintaining the high standard of workmanship for 
which the Company stands. 

While the splendid showing in subscriptions to war loans 
and charities which has been recorded on preceding pages 
is one to be proud of, the real showing which served most 
directly to help in winning the war was the steady and 
unending stream of machines and tools, which flowed from 
our Works into arsenals and essential industries — the prod- 
uct of loyal and faithful workers within the walls of our 
factory. 



THE WORKMAV^ TO HIS J^THE 

Written when the war was at its height by Edgar A. Guest in Detroit Free Press 

** O lathe of mine, across the sea 
They need the work of you and me; 
They will be fine if we be true; 
They'll hold the line, if we but do 
This task that now to us is set; 
Let's keep the faith and not forget. 
Speed up ! Speed up ! Across the sea 
Our soldiers wait on you and me ! " 

[89] 



WOMEN'S WAR WORK 



J^TALTT MEET IN g 

|]ITH the purpose of further arousing the 
spirit of patriotism and making it effective 
in speeding up essential war work in our 
shop, Loyalty Mass Meetings were held 
on Aug. 28, 1918, the employees east of 
Holden Street attending one and those west 
of Holden Street the other, thus bringing 
the total force of 7,000 under the spell of 
the eloquent and forceful appeals of Capt. W. A. Cameron 
of the Canadian Army. At these meetings the entire force 
pledged renewed loyalty in their work to the nation and 
the cause for which she fought. 

Music was furnished by the Brown & Sharpe Band, led 
by J. J. Rooney, and met with enthusiastic approval. 

At the noontime meetings, throughout the various cam- 
paigns of war activities, this Band was of great service. 





WOMEU\['S fFAT^JFORK^ 

T had been foreseen that as soon as America 
entered the war the shortage of help would 
be much accentuated and plans for meeting 
this shortage had already been considered 
by the Brown & Sharpe Management. 

Among these was the employment of 
women, not only for shop clerical positions 
but also for Machine Shop work. 
Steps were taken at once to use such help. The women 
took hold with ability, interest and loyalty, quickly be- 
coming proficient in many lines of shop work. By the 
time the Armistice was signed there were 1,481 women em- 
ployed, all but a few hundred of these filling shop positions, 
they being at work in almost every department except the 
Foundry. 

Special note has been made by many observers of the 
high type of girls who have been brought together in our 

[90] 



WAR GARDENS 



working force and their neat and orderly appearance not 
only in the shop but also on the street when coming to and 
leaving work. 

While the number employed was reduced following the 
Armistice to make room for the returning Service Men it 
has since been gradually increased with the growth of the 
business. 



IFJTi^ GyiRT)E:h(S 



ECAUSE of the serious food shortage and 
the soaring cost of food stuffs which con- 
fronted the world in the spring of 1917, 
Brown & Sharpe undertook the supervi- 
sion of War Gardens for the benefit of 
their employees. These proved so suc- 
cessful that the plan has been continued 
each year since its inception, with increas- 
ingly gratifying results. 

In the following table showing these results, the cost to 
Brown & Sharpe of assisting in the work is not included:

Thus in three seasons about forty thousand dollars' 
worth of produce has been raised, at a profit to the garden- 
ers of about thirty-two thousand dollars, besides their re- 
ceiving several hundred dollars in prizes — ^this largely on 
land which if it had not been cultivated by them, would 
in all probability have lain idle and produced practically 
nothing. 

In 1919 over 7,000 bushels of potatoes were raised, the 
crops raised in the prize gardens giving a phenomenal 
yield at the rate of 575 bushels per acre.

AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP 




<^MET{ICA^ CiriZEU\(SHIT 

HE question of Citizenship was brought 
prominently to the front in connection 
with our war activities, and in 1917 took 
the form of a campaign in our Works to 
assist all employees who desired to become 
citizens. 

As a result out of 1,312 aliens among 
our workmen at the time 505 took out 
first papers and 606 already having first papers took steps 
from time to time as eligible to become full citizens. 
Among employees hired since that time 464 aliens have 
either become citizens or started on the road to citizenship, 
niaking a total of 1,575 who have been aided by us toward 
citizenship. Of these 133 were in military service during 
the Great War, thus entitling them to citizenship and leav- 
ing but a few of our alien employees not as yet taking steps 
to become American citizens. 

The Company is further encouraging and aiding those on 
their way to citizenship in their study of English and civics 
in|the evening classes conducted by the public schools. 



'lARMISTICE T)Ar, Vs^OV. 11, 1918 



VER HERE. After a premature announce- 
ment on November 8 had put every one on 
edge the real news of the signing of the 
Armistice came before daylight on Novem- 
ber 11, and Providence, like the rest of the 
country, went wild with rejoicing. 

What attempt there was on the part of 
Brown & Sharpe employees to report for 
work was soon diverted into some form of celebration. 
Several parades were formed, one led by members of our 
Band, others marching with improvised slogans and trans- 
parencies, and automobiles loaded with employees circled 
the Works. The celebrators soon scattered through the

ARMISTICE DAY, NOV. 11, 1918 



downtown section of the city sharing throughout the day 
in the general celebration. 

"OVER THERE." From one of the boys in a letter 
dated Nov. 12, 1918: 

"The day that we have all been looking forward to for so 
long is at last here although it is hard to believe that the 
war is at an end. 

"The news came to us yesterday morning at about ten 
o'clock that Germany had accepted and signed the Armis- 
tice and that operations would cease at eleven o'clock that 
morning. We were in the act of putting over a heavy bar- 
rage when the word came to us and of course every one 
around went wild, but that did not interfere with the bar- 
rage and we kept on plugging away until eleven o'clock. 
On the last round fired from the guns a long lanyard was 
attached to each gun and every one around had hold of it 
when the last shot went sailing on its way, so about every 
one in the Battery had a hand in firing one of the last shots. 
Since eleven o'clock yesterday everything has been quiet 
and it certainly does seem strange after about ten months 
at the front to have everything quiet again. 

"Last night every one who could, got hold of a flare pistol 
and the sky was lit up continually with signal rockets of all 
descriptions and it is the same to-night. It certainly is a 
change to go outside and see lights everywhere. All the 
autos have their headlights lit as they travel the roads 
where formerly a light at night around here was seldom 
seen. 

"I suppose the people back home are having all kinds of 
demonstrations and that there is all kind of rejoicing. 

"It is hard for us here to realize that the war is really 
over and of course we won't realize it fully until we see the 
good old U. S. A. once more."
